Subject: [PATCH] dax: remove silly single-page limitation in
 dax_zero_page_range

From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>

It's totally silly that the dax zero_page_range implementations are
required to accept a page count, but one of the four implementations
silently ignores the page count and the wrapper itself errors out if you
try to do more than one page.

Fix the nvdimm implementation to loop over the page count and remove the
artificial limitation.
